Also returning to Woodystock: blues quartet Catbone, and Tiffany Lynn singing the Star Spangled Banner. New to Woodystock this year: Los Angeles-based Kenny Williams and the Stomp Down Riders, fronted by colorful guitar virtuoso, Kenny “Big Daddy” Williams; and Phoenix, AZ’s Until The Sun, female-fronted alt-blues/rock quartet whose newest release, A Night At The Rhythm Room, has received great reviews. Emcee again this year: Sanford Cohn from KBXX 101.7FM ‘Bad Ass Blues.’

New for 2023: Festival goers will be able to purchase a variety of locally-brewed craft beers, including Copper Still Distillery, ‘Proudly Handcrafted in Lake Havasu Since 2018.’ Local food, clothing, and arts vendors will also be selling their goods at Woodystock again this year.
